Gathering of the People Pow Wow
This past weekend me and my family made it out to Boulevard Lake where the Gathering of the People Pow Wow was taking place. It was the last day of the event, but we got to spend just over an hour watching some amazing dancers and drum groups perform.

Not only did I capture photos of the dancing, I tried to also get photos the people in attendance too. Overall it was a very fun and rewarding day. I look forward to hopefully many more Pow Wow’s over the course of the summer.
Festival of India 2019
Festival of India here in Thunder Bay has been going on for about 10 years I believe. I have made it to a few over the years and it’s always a great time. This year, I went for about 1 hour and came away with some memorable photos. The dancers that I did see were simply amazing. I would have been nice to stick around to see a few more but I had to go. Tomorrow, The Festival of Colours takes place at the Marina and I’m really hoping I can find the time to make it out. it’s quite the scene. Here are some highlights from this evening.

Cinderella - with the Thunder Bay Symphony Orchestra
This past Wednesday I had the pleasure of shooting Cinderella at the Community Auditorium for The Walleye Magazine. Surprisingly this was my first ballet I have ever been to, let alone hired photograph. So suffice it to say I was super excited.
This past Wednesday I had the pleasure of shooting Cinderella at the Community Auditorium for The Walleye Magazine. Surprisingly this was my first ballet I have ever been to, let alone hired photograph. So suffice it to say I was super excited. Going in I didn't really know what to expect which made that much more spontaneous and exciting. I ended up staying for the first act and it was wonderful. There were so many good dancers, and combined with the fantastic orchestra, it was really quite the evening. That's probably why it was pretty much a packed house.
Being limited to the corner of there stage I worried I would struggle getting good enough shots but in the end it wall worked out. As you can see from the pictures below I think I was able to capture some wonderful moments.
